Parliamentary Scrutiny of Leaving the EU

Proceeding contribution from Ben Bradshaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 12 October 2016. It occurred during Opposition day on Parliamentary Scrutiny of Leaving the EU.

My hon. and learned Friend mentions uncertainty. I have been contacted by a business in my constituency that has, until recently, been growing very rapidly, and had plans to announce a £100,000 expansion this autumn. That has now been cancelled because of the uncertainty about our future in the single market and because of what it sees as the Government’s headlong rush to a hard Brexit. What can he say about Labour’s position to reassure those businesses across the whole of Britain that are worried about our future in the single market?
